Black Diamond  Snaggletooth Pro Crampons

Easy to adjust to fit boots. Easy to put on boots. Easy to remove. Indestructable. Incredible grip for any terrain. I can't find even one tiny aspect I could criticize about this product.

Bought these last year and used them throughout the season on all types of ice. Good all round stability, but lacks when it comes to hard technical ice. Found myself kicking hard to get a purchase. A minor setback though as the versatility is brilliant. Used them on the ice fields in Monte Rosa during the summer. Great!

These crampons significantly better for dry tooling and mixed climbing than other horizontal front point crampons currently on the market. The slight reduction in performance on snow and ice is offset by the increased performance on rock for any mixed climb. I generally prefer the horizontal monopoint to vertical monopoints. However, I do wish that Black Diamond will eventually center the monopoint, to reduce torque on ankles, when all of your weight is placed on the monopoint. The torque from the off-center monopoint can be slightly uncomfortable, at times.

Great product that fits well and climbs even better.

I bought them for mixed climbing routes with a lot of rock climbing involved and they proved very adequate for the task indeed. I used them with a pair of La Sportiva Batura and they performed very well with great feeling and precision. However there was this incident on the downclimb when one of the crampons suddenly came off without particular reason. I had them fitted really hard so I don't know what happened but since then I am a bit cautious.

Awesome precision, these things force you to have good technique or you feet will blow out from underneath you, MAKE SURE THE MONO point is nearest to your big toe or you'll be wondering why your knees are shaking, overall i've climbed wi5 and m5 in these, they're awesome all rounders but wouldn't be climbing sustained pitches above wi4.

Bought these and the Long Flex Center Bars to use with my La Sportiva Olympus Mons Cube boots for some winter mountaineering and even with the wide toe bails I am unable to fit to my boots (boot sole is too thick and toe bail is not tall enough to fit over the toe welt). I have emailed support and they haven't responded at all.

I have been ice climbing for 22 years. I have worn a lot of different crampon configurations. The Snaggletooth is by far the best crampon I have ever had. The horizontal front point excels on thin ice, chandelier features and small rock holds. I have even been able to smear on itty bitty holds with success.

The snaggletooth pro has withstood a couple mountains worth of abuse. From rock scrapes to full on kicks they have maintained their shape, security and sharpness. I use them on my Nepals if you have that boot I would highly recommend these crampons.

Moving on to my fifth pair of crampons and each time they keep getting better. I love these- they are grippy, easy to put on and off, hug the boot very well, and very reliable. I take these on all my major glacier expeditions!!
